Chris Brown performed “Turn Up The Music” on the 2012 Billboard Music Awards stage last night — and he was blasted for not actually singing the song. Pink and Joe Jonas both spoke up about the kerfuffle by calling Chris out for lip-syncing his entire performance.

Pink took to her official Twitter account to slam the R&B singer. She tweeted, “One day if i lipsync i hope i do it as well as him…”

Oh snap!

After being on the receiving end of his fans’ backlash, she tweeted, “Oh my lord, its so easy…its so damn easy. Keep it coming people, this is some good reading…”

Her husband Carey Hart chimed in, tweeting, “Im pretty sure I saw my wife did that same performance, but she was 3 months pregnant and actually sang the song. If any of your guys are riding on Chris Brown performance, please fire them.”

Joe Jonas added, “What happened to people singing live???”

Did you see Chris’ performance last night? Do you think he’s getting wrongly targeted? Or do they have a point?

Apparently, there is someone out there who wanted to kill off Chris Brown — on the internet, that is. After all of the crap that he put Rihanna through in 2009 and people are just now starting rumors that he’s dead?!? Oh the humanity. But alas, Chris is still alive to beat another day…

But that hasn’t stopped all of the hateful comments pouring across the internet. One comment on his recent video for Turn Up The Music read, “Read in peace – may you be greeted in heaven by seventy virgins and a baseball bat. I know that’s what you always wanted.”

Another commenter said, “I didn’t like him as a person, I don’t like his music, but still I believe that no one should die at such a young age.” Lastly, another commenter said, “RIP Chris, you’ll be beating women in hell from now to eternity.”

One thing that is dying is the rumors surrounding his obviously fake death. Did you believe the hype? Or do you want to see stuff like this via the mainstream media before you buy into it?

After Rihanna got beat down by Chris Brown, she is seemingly moving toward a somewhat nicer guy — even though he’s goofy. Reportedly, Rihanna was spotted on Wednesday stopping by Ashton Kutcher’s house for a late night visit! She brought along her security team, even though she wasn’t at risk for any type of altercation with the Two And A Half Men actor.

TMZ reports:

According to the photographer, the “Birthday Cake” singer got to Ashton’s home right around midnight … and didn’t leave ’til roughly 4 AM.

As we previously reported, Justin Bieber recently checked out Ashton’s $10 million bachelor pad on his high-end real estate hunt … but we’re guessin’ Rihanna wasn’t there for an open house.

What do you think Rihanna was doing at Ashton’s pad? Was she trying to hook up with him? Or perhaps they got together late at night for a nice cool game of Backgammon. What are your thoughts?

Rihanna says that she is bored of being single and wants to find herself a nice boyfriend. So why are there all these rumors around stating that she wants to get back together with Chris Brown?!? He’s far from the nice “bring home to your family” type.

In a new interview, she said, “I am a single lady. This is not something I enjoy. Single life is so overrated. You always want to be single when you are in a relationship but trust me it is no bueno. I have such incredible experiences in my life, but you don’t want to live your life and then meet someone, you want to share your life with someone. I feel like that is what I am missing right now.”

She went on to say, “I’d love to date somebody cool, fun, funny.”

As long as that doesn’t mean that she wants to date someone who will beat her senseless and bite her in various places and then leave her for dead. She’s been pushing the envelope even talking to that creep. He obviously has no genuine remorse for what he’s done to her. We can only hope that she does find a truly nice guy that will treat her with respect.

Chris Brown is currently being investigated over the theft of a woman’s iPhone in Miami, Florida. Reportedly, he told Christal Spann (the phone’s owner), “B*tch, you ain’t going to put that on no website.” Afterward, he allegedly snatched her phone and drove off.

An arrest warrant is said to be being prepared by the Florida State Attorney’s Office for the singer — for “robbery by sudden snatching”. A spokesperson for the Attorney’s Office said, “My prosecutors are currently speaking with witnesses and reviewing all of the materials supplied by Miami Beach Police. Only after these reviews have been completed would any type of action be considered or taken. This is the basic process that every criminal case in Miami-Dade County undergoes.”

Chris is reportedly telling his friends that he’s innocent of snatching the woman’s phone. An insider said, “Chris is telling friends that he has done nothing wrong. Chris is hopeful that the evidence and the true facts of the case will result in no charge being made against him. Chris letting his lawyer, Mark Geragos, deal with the Florida State’s Attorney’s Office. Chris is saying that a decision about whether or not charges will be filed against him could be decided and formally announced as early as Friday.”

The source went on to say, “He will do whatever his attorney asks him to do. He is no longer in Miami, but if he needs to return for any reason, he certainly will. Chris has nothing to hide.”

If Chris is charged in the case, the Los Angeles District Attorney’s Office can revoke his probation in his battery case against ex-girlfriend, Rihanna. He could go to jail as he is on felony probation for her brutal beating in 2009.

Chris Brown has never been known as a very sensible person due to past situations, and something tells me he is still living up to this reputation. Last Sunday, a police report was filed by a Florida woman who claims Chris got angry at her for attempting to take a picture of the singer on her phone. As a result, he flipped, snatched the cell phone from her and drove off.

One of the victim’s friends told police, Brown stated, “Bitch, you not gonna put this up on no website.”

The victim and her friends were very agitated and just wanted to get their friend her phone back. The victim filed a report for “robbery by sudden snatching.” The incident will be further investigated by police to determine whether he is guilty or not. There is also a possibility if he is charged with robbery, police can attempt to punish him with jail time for violating his probation for assaulting his ex-girlfriend, Rihanna, back in 2009.

This kid has really got to get some respect for the women around him, because a true man treats women like the queens that they are. Not to mention, what is a picture going to hurt? He’s already got thousands of them all over the web… What was he doing in that picture?

Rihanna is really close to patching things up with her former boyfriend and abuser, Chris Brown. Say it isn’t so! Tell us that she isn’t really considering taking him back! Hasn’t she learned anything from the beating she took at his hands in 2009?!?

He is still on probation for the brutal beating when he lashed out at her in a car. He bloodied her lip, bit her ear and left a contusion on her head. He has apologized several times for the attack, but has never actually shown that he has matured as a person. In recent reports, Chris has repeatedly shown his temper, leading us to believe that he hasn’t learned anything.

Still, Rihanna’s friends are trying to keep the former couple apart. TMZ reports that Rihanna still has feelings for Chris, despite the abuse she suffered three years ago. According to their report, if weren’t for the media along with her fans, she would already be back with him.

Chris is currently dating Karrueche Tran, but that doesn’t seem to matter because he still has strong feelings for Rihanna.

Can you imagine the kind of message she would be sending out to her young fans if she gets back together with him? What do you think? We think it spells nothing but BAD NEWS. PERIOD.

Earlier today, it was rumored that Chris Brown was using a joke about beating women in order to attempt to pick up new ones.

From our report earlier today:

According to an attractive brunette who Chris approached at the Lasio Professional Hair Care suite Grammy gift lounge, Chris gave the douchiest line ever in an attempt to get her digits. She said that he asked, “Can I get your number? I promise I won’t beat you!”

She added, “He and his friends laughed, then one yelled, ‘That’s his new line!’ Ugh, I wanted to throw up!”

Now, Chris is rebutting the claims that he would use such an insult as a pickup line. TMZ reports:

Now, Brown has released a statement to TMZ … saying, “That is absurd and absolutely not true. I did not say that nor would I joke about that.”

Did you believe the reports that Chris would do such a thing? Is it characteristic of something that Chris would say? What do you think?

This has got to be the worst pickup line in the history of pickup lines. Chris Brown beat his former girlfriend Rihanna in 2009 right before their scheduled performance at the Grammy Awards.

Later, the R&B singer pleaded guilty to felony assault for the incident. He was subsequently ordered to complete community service and is on probation.

According to an attractive brunette who Chris approached at the Lasio Professional Hair Care suite Grammy gift lounge, Chris gave the douchiest line ever in an attempt to get her digits. She said that he asked, “Can I get your number? I promise I won’t beat you!”

She added, “He and his friends laughed, then one yelled, ‘That’s his new line!’ Ugh, I wanted to throw up!”

Can you blame her? He is basically using his assault on Rihanna as a means of getting women. Chris’ rep is trying to debunk the claims, saying, “I’d be surprised if Chris said something that stupid.”

Would you be surprised if Chris approached you with that line? Would you believe him? Sound off in the comments and let us know your thoughts. What was the craziest pickup line that you’ve ever heard?

On Sunday night’s Grammy Awards, Chris Brown performed twice and won an award for Best R&B album. Those of us who do not like Chris because of what he did to Rihanna voiced our opinions or just plainly changed the channel during his sets.

We know, it was three years ago and people need to look to the future. In reality, he’s made a mistake and is paying for it. He should have paid for it with a jail sentence, instead of just getting off with probation and community service.

Rihanna has forgiven him, so does that mean we have to as well? Not necessarily. If we forget what he did to her, isn’t that the same thing as enabling his negative behavior?

The Grammy Awards defended allowing him to perform and win an award in a recent statement. Are you forgiving yet? Us neither. Apparently Chris had a little message for those who chastised his performance and win last Sunday.

Chris took to his official Twitter page and said, “Strange how we pick and choose who to hate! Let me ask u this. Our society is full of rappers (which I listen to) who have sold drugs (poisoning). But yet we glorify them and imitate everything they do. Then right before the worlds eyes a man shows how he can make a big mistake and learn from it, but still has to deal with day to day hatred! You guys love to hate!!! But guess what??? HATE ALL U WANT BECUZ I GOT A GRAMMY Now! That’s the ultimate F**K OFF!”

Ugh.

If you were like us, on Sunday night, you changed the channel when Chris Brown was gearing up to perform at the 2012 Grammy Awards. This is the first show that he was allowed to return for a performance since the 2009 pre-Grammys beating of his former girlfriend, Rihanna. In case you don’t recall the incident, here’s a brief reminder of what he did to her face.

Sure, he’s apologized, but later, he showed his anger again during an appearance on Good Morning America. On Sunday, he was allowed by producers of the Grammys, to perform in support of his new album, F.A.M.E.

Since there was a lot of backlash, the people behind the awards show has felt the need to defend their decision to allow his performance.

Recording Academy president Neil Portnow said that if they began judging people based on their personal lives, they would get on a “slippery slope”.

On Sunday’s show, he performed his new song, Turn Up The Music and later came back to do a dance tribute to Don Cornelius. Neil Portnow said, “That’s really where the judgment comes from: music professionals listening to the music of other professionals. Clearly, our voting membership rated highly Chris’ musical work this past year. If we’re going to get in trying to personally evaluate artists in terms of their personal lives, that’s a slippery slope that we wouldn’t want to get into.”

Grammy Awards producer, Ken Ehrlich said, “I just believe people deserve a second chance. The year he had this year really brought him back into the public. He really deserved a second chance.”

What did you think of Chris Brown’s performance at the Grammy Awards? Or did you change the channel?

Chris Brown wasn’t at his recent progress hearing over the beating of his former girlfriend, Rihanna, but despite getting high marks on his reviews, he’s to remain on probation.

He was arrested in 2009, following the pre-Grammys incident and was sentenced to five years of probation and 180 hours of community service. He was keeping up with his end of the deal, but expected to get off of probation early.

His lawyer requested that his probation be terminated, but it was ruled that he would continue to report to probation officials in Virginia. His probation officer revealed that he passed all of his required drug tests, completed an anger management course, has undergone domestic violence counseling and has completed his six months of required community service.

Do you think the court should have allowed him to be off of probation? Or are they just sticking the probationary period on him as long as possible because he didn’t do ANY jail time?

FYI, Chris Brown and Rihanna are gearing up to perform at Sunday’s Grammy Awards, although not together. Stay tuned!

Chris Brown accumulated a whopping total of 95 parking tickets, to the tune of $15,000 — and they’ve all been dismissed! Another lucky break for the R&B singer…Go figure.

He was parking in the handicapped spot at his building, racking up the charges. Fortunately for him, Hollywood officials have ruled that the parking space was actually his.

It’s really a douche move to park in the handicapped spot, no matter where it is…So we would be remiss if we hadn’t mentioned that. However, it’s not all roses for the singer. He still has 22 tickets that he has to take care of which are related to other parking offenses.

Maybe he can try to get out of those, as well? I mean, you don’t get if you don’t ask, as one fine person told me. What do you think? Should he just suck it up and pay the fines? He has already beaten $15,000 in tickets… Should he push his luck?

Chris Brown performed at the MTV Video Music Awards recently where he recovered his $22,000 Rolex watch. Chris tossed the watch onto a trampoline and it ended up bouncing into the crowd. The watch was returned when he dispatched his security guards into the crowd to locate it.

A fan gave the watch to the security guard and didn’t expect anything in return. At the time, Chris didn’t get to meet the fan, but said that he would like to thank her for her honesty. TMZ reports that the girl has come forward!

We spoke to the Rolex-returner herself — a girl named Alisha — who tells us she was in the audience at the VMA’s with a friend — when Chris took off his watch, dropped it on a trampoline … and it bounced right over to her.

Alisha says she put the Rolex on her wrist — then saw one of Brown’s people looking for the wayward watch … so she turned it in.

We’re told the two parties got in contact after seeing the story on our site — and Alisha was promised tickets to a show, backstage passes and a meet-and-greet with Chris.

Alisha tells us she’s SUPER excited about the offer — and was never expecting a reward for her good deed.

Does she have proof that she held the watch? Or will the security guard recognize her from every other fan in the audience?

Chris Brown caught a super lucky break at a recent concert when a fan returned his $22,000 diamond encrusted Rolex!

It all went down at the 2011 MTV Video Music Awards, when Chris tossed the super expensive timepiece somewhere safe. The only problem was that he actually ended up tossing it into the crowd. After the performance, his bodyguard went into the audience, asking around for the watch, but they didn’t really expect anyone to be honest enough to come forward.

It ended well when the honest fan returned the watch to Chris, through his bodyguard. Chris’ rep said, “Although Chris did not get to meet the fan, he is very appreciative of the fan’s actions.”

TMZ reports that Chris is grateful to the female fan and wants to give her a nice reward for her honesty:

A rep for Brown tells us — Chris’ bodyguard didn’t get the name of the girl who returned the watch … but they’re hoping she’ll contact them … so Chris can personally thank her and reward her with tickets and backstage passes to his new tour.

He wanted some positive PR and so it is. Have we forgiven his douchetastic behavior toward Rihanna? No, but he wants to reach out to the fan who did the right thing, and we’re all about facilitating that.

It’s almost as if this was supposed to happen. Two famewhores, struggling to find their way back into relevancy. Chris Brown performed at the 2011 MTV Video Music Awards last night and he reportedly blew everyone away with his performance (not literally).

There was one person who was left completely impressed by his stage performance (and no, it wasn’t Jay-Z).

After Chris’ performance, Lindsay took to her Twitter account to say, “@ChrisBrown killed it. #MTVVMAs”

A few hours later, she sent him this message, “@chrisbrown wanna meet?”

Now why would Lindsay want to meet Chris Brown, unless it’s to hatch some evil plan to take over the world of irrelevance with brute force? What do you think?

During last night’s MTV Video Music Awards, Chris Brown was said to have put on quite the show. So much, in fact, people were left commenting about how good it was. Celebrities in attendance, stood and clapped for the often troubled singer. With one exception, of course.

As Kanye West and others stood up and clapped, Jay-Z was sitting tight, looking bored. After all, Jay is probably still holding a grudge against Chris for what he did to Rihanna. He discovered Rihanna, so it stands to reason that he’s still holding on to a beef with him.

Either that, or he’s busy with babies on the brain. Beyonce announced her pregnancy on the red carpet at the event and even showed off her baby bump!

What do you think of the situation? Is Jay still not feeling any reason to be nice to Chris Brown, no matter how many times he moonwalks on the stage? Sound off in the comments!

We’re hoping that this is merely a rumor, but according to reports, Rihanna and Chris Brown have started dating again. Ugh.

Chris brutally beat Rihanna in 2009, but has since served his time for his crime. And now that the restraining order has been lifted, they’re said to have grown closer.

A source said, “Ri-Ri’s always loved Chris – that never changed. They’ve texted and Skyped each other a lot recently and met up at a mutual friend’s house in Los Angeles after the restraining order expired.”

Now, they’re said to be giving things another chance. The insider said, “Ri-Ri wants to be with Chris but is worried about her career and fans. She’s trying to find a way to take him back publicly without letting down her supporters, her management and her friends or setting a bad example. Chris has said he’ll be as patient as she needs him to be but after being slammed on Twitter for just following him, she’s begun to worry that they may never get to be together in public.”

What do you think of the reports?

Chris Brown’s mother, Joyce Hawkins, has decided to weigh in on his recent nude photo scandal! Wanna talk about embarrassing!

In a recent interview, she said that she’s certain he did not release the nude photo of himself to the media. She said, “Never would he have” leaked the picture. “Chris’ personality, never would have sent” that.

It was obvious that he took the photo himself on his cell phone, but his mother says that he was embarrassed as soon as it went public. She told him, “You don’t do that.”

She went on to say, “I guess it was somebody he probably had known for a while that may have been upset with him for a certain reason, maybe he doesn’t talk to them anymore.”

Who do you think leaked the picture?

Rihanna recently had her restraining order against Chris Brown lightened so that they could attend the same events without issue for him.

One blogger, Sandra Rose reportedly criticized Rihanna for not continuing the restraining order, calling it a “disgrace”.

Now, Rihanna used her piece in Rolling Stone to hit back at the writer, saying, “A lot of people get so brave behind the computer screen.”

She went on to say, “When she’s jumping to conclusions about my personal decision, it really p**sed me off. That’s my decision. You don’t make that decision for me.”

And just because the restraining order has been relaxed, it doesn’t mean that she has any plans to reunite with Chris. She added, “It doesn’t mean we’re gonna be in a relationship, or make up, or even talk ever again. We don’t have to talk again ever in my life. I just didn’t want to make it more difficult for him professionally.”

Rihanna said that she was so shocked and sickened at the first time nude photos of her were leaked that she locked herself inside of a bathroom in an airport.

She says that she had landed in Hawaii in 2009 when she was alerted to the photos online, by friends on her cell phone.

She said, “I could barely stand. I went to the first bathroom I saw and just sat in the stall with the door open. People kept coming in and staring at me sitting on the toilet bowl. I was mortified. I didn’t even want to leave the airport.”

The pictures were reportedly sent to her boyfriend at the time, Chris Brown.

Chris Brown was interviewed on Good Morning America by Robin Roberts recently, when he threw a temper tantrum in his dressing room and tossed a chair at a window. She went on the record to say that all of the questions that she asked him were pre-approved by Chris himself.

Now, Rosie O’Donnell is defending Chris and is taking aim at Robin!

On her radio show, she said that Chris was treated unfairly during his interview. She revealed, “I don’t know why this kid seems to be held to a different standard than anybody else. I felt mildly angry at Robin Roberts. I felt like writing her and going, ‘Can you take a look at this again and see if maybe you find — in any way — your responsibility in this?’”

She said that she understands how Chris was feeling because she felt the same way during her time on The View. She added, “Part of me wanted to take a chair and throw it through the window at The View…but, you know, there are no windows down there in that rat-infested cellar.”

Dancing With The Stars host Tom Bergeron said that he wasn’t happy with ABC’s decision to go ahead with Chris Brown’s performance on the show Tuesday. In a recent interview with Ryan Seacrest, he said that he would’ve asked Chris the same questions that were asked of him on Good Morning America.

He said, “I did tell the producers it may be to their advantage to not have me interview him, because my natural tendency would be to say something. So, don’t put me in a position where you are asking me not to say something, because I really won’t do that.”

Can you blame him? Fans of the show protested Chris’ performance saying that the network was basically condoning his previous behavior.

What is your take on that?
